Refined Legacy. Honest Connections
VISION with intension
I believe the most meaningful images are the result of an intentional experience.
I am not a silent observer of your day, and you are never just a subject in front of my lens. We are in this together. My approach is defined by an active, steady presence.
Acting as your guide to ensure you never feel lost or "posed."
By curating the light and offering intentional direction, I create a space where you can feel entirely yourself.
The result is a refined collection of imagery that doesn't just show what your wedding looked like, but captures the authentic energy of how your celebration felt.

I am Wim—an observer and artist dedicated to documenting the modern legacy. While my home is in Ireland, my work takes me across Europe, from the villas of Italy to the chateaus of France.
I approach every celebration with refinement and care, shaping each moment into a beautifully composed and deeply personal image.
My work is built on connection—with you, with your planners, and with the unique atmosphere of your day. Every detail is considered, every frame intentional, resulting in images that are elegant, timeless, and an authentic reflection of your celebration.
